Duties

What will I do in this position if hired?

This position is located in the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Office of National Continuity Programs (ONCP), Continuity Support Division, Security Branch. The incumbent serves as an Emergency Management Specialist. Typical assignments include:
Coordinating emergency management efforts and engaging staff, as well as the functions required to manage affected security-related programs and activities. Supporting continual assessment and programmatic readiness of emergency preparedness and other programs, to ensure capabilities are maintained at the highest levels. Planning, organizing, implementing, overseeing, and providing technical assistance for projects related to emergency management and security-related programs. Addressing critical issues through planning, analysis, and application of various methods and processes applicable to activities during emergency response situations.

What else do I need to know?

At FEMA, our mission is to help people before, during and after disasters, and every employee at FEMA has a role in emergency management. Every FEMA employee has regular and recurring emergency management responsibilities, though not every position requires routine deployment to disaster sites. All positions are subject to recall around the clock for emergency management operations, which may require irregular work hours, work at locations other than the official duty station, and may include duties other than those specified in the employee's official position description. Travel requirements in support of emergency operations may be extensive in nature (weeks to months), with little advance notice, and may require employees to relocate to emergency sites with physically austere and operationally challenging conditions.

FEMA is committed to ensuring that its workforce reflects the diversity of the nation. At FEMA, our workforce includes the many identities, races, ethnicities, backgrounds, abilities, ages, cultures, and beliefs of the people we serve. To learn about FEMA's ongoing diversity and inclusion efforts, reasonable accommodation process, and the FEMA Core Values, please visit www.fema.gov .
